Default 8320 Trackball question.....

Please Login to Remove!

I have been getting used to the Curve....put in the new software it helped with phone calls not being completed.

My question is regarding the Trackball. On my Pearl the trackball feels stationery and works well when you roll it. On the Curve the trackball is much looser and the Click/press is not as precise.....

Is this normal for the Curve? Is it just my piece?

Thank you

Elliot

Mine feels just about the same, at least to me. I can't really tell any difference.

Default Trackball on Curve

I am wondering if this is a QC problem with the Curve.

The trackball should be close to the Pearl.

It floated more than I thought it would but after just a few days I seem to be able to control it easily. Not a problem.

My trackball is loose too, lots of travel before you get any traction. a nightmare for brickbreaker, can this be fixed or is it a reason to return it?
